I'm having a lovely Saturday, and I hope you are as well. Here's how I define "lovely": I slept until I woke up, lounged around with a second cup of coffee, and around noon began creating at my own pace, aka "slowly". I'll show you what I've been up to soon; it's for a swap so it will all need to stay under wraps for a while.
But feast your eyes on what I won last week on shopgoodwill.com! A vintage beaded evening bag...
made in Paris.
It has the sweetest pleats, and some delicate embroidery on the front and back.
But I could not get over the beading.
Even though it's not perfect/missing some beads -- especially on the clasp -- I just love what remains.
In case you haven't heard, the Grow Your Blog event is happening, beginning today! I'm not a participant this year but I am an alumni of previous years and I highly recommend you take some time to visit some of the bloggers taking part in the event! Many of them are having giveaways, too -- which just adds to the fun, right?
Don't forget: some of us are going to bling up a yogurt cup and there's still time to join in that challenge! Details here.

The bag is stunning.
